variety development

 

IPM has invested in variety innovation for over 30 years by funding the variety breeding programme at Oak Park Research Centre, Carlow, Ireland.

 

Our breeding programme uses the most current breeding techniques and we do not utilise genetic modification (G.M.). The development of new and better potato varieties is one of the key elements for a vibrant and resourceful potato industry. IPM’s seedlings are tested over 10 years in several sites around the world and only the most successful are chosen to become new IPM varieties. IPM consistently release new varieties to cater for the ever-changing requirements of our customers worldwide.

 

These varieties and promising seedlings make IPM a continuous growing force in international potato marketing.
